Introduction

The Xiaomi Redmi 13C 4G and POCO C65 4G share a compatible case market, and this review focuses on a specific offering: a luxury plating soft back cover in Black 10. I’ve been using this case for several weeks now, putting it through the daily rigors of work and leisure. This review aims to provide a balanced perspective on its strengths and weaknesses.

Features

The case boasts a light and luxurious electroplating frame with stylish color matching. The description promises a breathable and dustproof material, easy to clean and comfortable to hold. It’s advertised as durable, environmentally friendly, and harmless. Crucially, it promises precise cutouts for all ports and buttons, ensuring full functionality.

The material is listed as TPU, known for its flexibility and shock absorption.

Performance & Durability

The electroplating finish is indeed attractive, giving the case a premium feel that surpasses its price point. The color (Black 10 in my case) is rich and hasn’t shown any significant signs of wear or scratching. The TPU material is pleasantly soft to the touch and grips well in the hand, preventing accidental slips. The raised edges provide excellent protection for the camera lenses, a crucial feature for me.

Regarding durability, the case has held up remarkably well. I’ve dropped my phone a couple of times from waist height onto hard surfaces, and the case has absorbed the impact with no damage to the phone itself. The cutouts are precise, allowing easy access to all ports and buttons without any hindrance.

The dust-repelling properties are noticeable. While it’s not completely dust-proof, the case does resist attracting and clinging to dust noticeably better than other cases I’ve used.

Pros & Cons

• Pros: Attractive electroplating finish, comfortable grip, good protection, precise cutouts, easy to clean, relatively durable, raised camera protection.
• Cons: The advertised dustproof quality is not entirely perfect; some dust can still accumulate over time. The case does add a bit of bulk to the phone, though not excessively so. Long-term durability remains to be fully seen but initial impressions are positive.

Final Verdict

Overall, I’m very pleased with the Xiaomi Redmi 13C 4G / POCO C65 4G case (Black 10). It offers a great balance of style, protection, and affordability. While not completely dustproof as advertised, its other positive attributes outweigh this minor drawback. I would recommend this case to anyone looking for a stylish and protective cover for their Redmi 13C 4G or POCO C65 4G smartphone.
